''She had knack OF cOnceiving good plots for
stories calculated to interest women and g1rls but
so have hundreds OF amateur noveliStS, whose
work may be had almost for the asking. Different
from them, she took the pains to learn accurately
and fully how women in the best society behaved
and she made her swell herones conform thereto.
In that way she produced imaginary ladies who
were true to realism. She kept them right up to

this, but the editors did, and 1t vastly enhanced
her In their estimation and doomed her along to
popularity"
..And now much pay did she get?"
"At the time OF her death she was under con-
tract to write ten stories for $4,000. They were
TO be produced at the rate of two year, thus max

A Mormon Manifesto.


TEE EDMUNDS LAW BITTERLY AssAILED, BUT POLYGAMY
NOT TOUCHED UPON.
At the general conference OF the Mormon Church
In Provo, Utah, yesterday, an epistle was read
from Presidents Taylor, Cannon, and Smith, who
comprised the first presidency Of the church. 1t
congratulates the people upon their peace and
prosperity and upon the increased growth OF Nor
monism, Notwithstanding the efforts OF its enc
mics to the contrary and exhOrts the people to be
vigorous observers of their duties and to stand
true to the principles espOused from the
organization Of the church. The epfstle
goes on to say that various agencies have
been employed to effect the overthrow
OF the church; that falsehood and
violence. having been tried In vain, new crusade
has been 1naugurated in the form OF legislative
tyranny, carried on by cunning adventures and
reckless fanatics. Referring to the Edmunds law
OF 1882, 1t says: ain the haste and zeal OF mad
ness to destroy Mormonism all settled
principles OF jurisprudence are disregarded
and evil precedents are established. Men talk and
act as II it were absolutely essential to the happi
ness OF the people OF the republic to override
every true principle OF government in order to
strike down majority OF the people OF Utah.
There Is danger that the precedent now being
made Will In the future be fruitful OF evil to the
people of this republic"
The epistle is chiefly remarkable for its silence
on the subject OF pOlygamy, to which 1t makes no
alluSfOn whatever.
